Staffordshire UK, 22nd February 2012: Theorem Solutions, world leading supplier of PLM interoperability solutions announces the latest DGN to JT CADverter, developed to bridge the gap between the world of Plant Design and Mechanical CAD.

Theorem’s DGN to JT CADverter resolves the issue of incompatible data formats and has the ability to complete full design reviews of combined data sets when plant and mechanical CAD design paths meet.

Theorem's latest *.DGN to JT CADverter helps bring designs to life and opens up new capabilities for DGN data.

The DGN to JT CADverter enables the DGN and Mechanical CAD user to combine data from both mechanical design systems and the Microstation application, allowing reviews of combined datasets to be performed.

Users of the DGN to JT CADverter can now benefit from

Viewing a virtual reality mockup of an entire plant/ship incorporating newly designed components from external MCAD systems to see how they fit available space prior to manufacture.

Generate a number of JT data types that can be opened and shared with number of external MCAD applications

The CADverter integrates into an active Microstation environment but operates completely independently of any JT applications.

Multiple versions of DGN supported, all versions of JT supported

This product has been developed using both the Bentley Microstation and the Siemens JT Open API's guaranteeing compatibility with the latest vendor releases and is available for Windows 32BIT and 64BIT platforms

Theorem Solutions is a long established World leading supplier of services and products that solve a range of engineering data problems for the design and manufacturing communities. Formed in 1991, to address CAD data translation issues, Theorem has gone on to master this challenge and deliver cost saving solutions and consultancy to engineering and manufacturing OEMs and their suppliers throughout the world.

Theorem’s CADverter family of translators provide interoperability capabilities between all of the major CAD systems, providing a comprehensive exchange of data including geometry, attributes and product manufacturing information.

Partner to all major CAD vendors and with the use of vendor supported development environments Theorem’s CADverter products ensure that the data being processed conforms to the specific requirements of the various applications. In addition, as the vendors improve their respective propriety file formats, their supported development environments remove all risks associated with database changes and guarantee to keep pace with the changes they make.

Design, Engineering and Manufacturing companies use Theorem’s consultancy and products to automate and take cost out of collaborating with business partners and they range in complexity from one to one partnerships to solutions for supply chains with hundreds of companies.

As well as enabling interoperability between trading partners Theorem also provides process automation solutions that are used “in house” for tasks such as CAD data migration and long term archiving. These save time and money by streamlining and eliminating the labour intensive tasks involved in translating and managing engineering and manufacturing data, help protect IP and also enable the capture and retention of skills which might otherwise be lost through employee mobility or retirement.
